Comet Research Group kicks off new journal with blockbuster papers

The Comet Research Group published profoundly important new data this weekend concerning the Younger Dryas Impact. A series of three papers were led by Dr. Andrew M.T. Moore, former President of the Archaeological Institute of America, concerning the catastrophe in earliest Mesopotamia, and a single paper was led by Dr. Robert Hermes, of Los Alamos National Laboratory, comparing and contrasting…

Comet Research Group member Marc Young presents at Flinders U

In 2009 the newly proposed Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis was knee capped by Surovell et al. To this day, despite a comprehensive 2012 expose of Todd Surovell’s flaws, his premature rejection of the YD impact is uncritically cited by opponents of the evidence and remains the final word in many closed minds. It remains a grudging task of the Comet Research Group to periodically refute his…

Allen West Misdemeanor DISMISSED

ALLEN WEST and the CRITICS About 20 years ago, the geophysical company owned by Allen West was hired to do a water survey for a city in California. At that time, West could legally practice in California as a petroleum geophysicist but was unaware that he needed a specific license to do geophysical surveys for water. The District Attorney (DA) filed charges, claiming West had engaged in “false…

For geeks only The Tusk had one of those “Holy Moley!” moments with the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis this weekend. Not a new paper, or even an entire show on a global communication platform, but rather a massive compilation of hard publication and communication data on the YDIH — and associated analysis framework — rolled out to the world by an anonymous digital…

Ancient Traumas, Modern Hints

As the Taurid meteor season wanes on the approach of Thanksgiving, I thought it was relevant (and economical) to share a couple of recent videos which present the Taurid phenomena from different, but mutually informative contexts. The first is a ‘live shot,’ and the second is a ‘retrospective,’ if you will. Here is a scary cool mash-up of weather person Ashley Baylor…

Smithsonian The Independent CNN USA Today In the wake of Halloween last week a very, very scary scientific paper was published. “Widespread glasses generated by cometary fireballs during the late Pleistocene in the Atacama Desert, Chile,” Shultz et al.”(October, 2021) creates a rebuttable presumption that horrific cosmic airbursts — without leaving craters — have…

The Tusk has characteristically hit a summer communication drought. But that doesn’t mean we can’t toss up a YouTube here and there from the coast. It’s welcome to see college courses fully integrating the Younger Dryas Impact into their thinking about the Younger Dryas and climate change. Here’s a great effort from Middlebury College.
